IN AKEEPER,s CHARGE.

The Wholesale Lumber Commission
Merchants White, CIarkson &c Co.
Attached-Thei Creditors to Meet
and Decide Whether or No it Shall
be a Faf1ure-What MIR. Clarkson
Says.
An attachment was recently placed on the
firm of White, Clarkson & Co., wholesale
lumber commission merchants who have an
Office in the Hoadley building. The firm
consists of Charles A. White, William D.
Clarkson' D. 81. Wellman of Providence and
James N. Willard, jr., of this city, and for
several years have been transaoting what ap-
peared to be prosperous business. A few
days ago, however, note of the firm, which
formerly had an Office in the Union depot,
was protested at the County bank. Some
Buffalo parties have been in the city for
few days looking into the affairs of the CONS
pany. The amount involved cannot be
ascertained, but it is thought to be quite
large sum. Much secrecy regarding the affair
has been kept by the constables and firm,
rendering it impossible to ascertain the de-
tails of the case. The keeper is still in
charge.
Mr.. Clarkson was seen by COURIER re-
porter at his Trumbull street residence last
evening. He was extremely reticent as re-
CARDS the sum involved, by whom the at
tachment was placed or what was the capital
stock of the concern.
He said: The firm of White, C1arkson &
Co. have become financially embarrassed, and
it lays with our creditors whether or no we
shall make an assignment. cannot for the
present state what caused our trouble
In answer to queries Mr.. Clarkson said:
"The firm has been doing a large commits
sion business in wholesale lumber, making
sales throughout New England. A meeting
of our creditors has been called to meet in
this city sometime next week. think they
are all friendly towards the firm, and in have
hopes they will agree tie let us go on. It will
be for them to decide"
Mr.. Clarkson said he knew nothing of a
livery bill mentioned in an evening paper.
1t was the first he heard of it, and he did not
know the liveryman.
He said he was secretary of the Carbonized
Stone and Marble company, but that COM
pany was in no way involved in the commits
stoned house embarrassment

The Observance OF Thanksgiving
Makes a Hole i'm the Amount ofBus-
1ness Done During the week.
NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-Special kilograms to
Bradstreet's point to somewhat irregular
trade conditions during the week with a
smaller total volume of general trade owing
to the observance of Thanksgiving day The
advancing tendency to prices in speculative
lines continues, but the reaction leaves SMALL
er recorded net gains with very active trad
ing in grain and stocks. The importations
of British iron and steel in the United States
for ten months this year amount TO /, 133, 900
tons, twice as much as in like share of last
year and over three times as much as in 1885,
While the United Kingdom sent one-eighth
of her total iron and steel exports to the
United States in 1885, the proportion was
nearly one-quarter last year and is one-third
this year. The feature in the special treas-
ury statement to Bradstreet's this week is the
large decrease in the available balance, a de-
crease amounting to over 81, 000, 900. The
gross receipts of the government show de-
crease as compared with last week The
treasurer's balance with depository bonds
shows an increase for the week preceding
and the bonds deposited on account Of
able net decrease. The earnings of 108 rail-
ways for ten months as reported to Brad
streets show gains of 1877 per cent.
over like portion of 1886. 206 per cent.
over 1885 and 17.S per cent. over 1884.
Prices this week have varied in leading sta
pies as follows: Advanced, -four and 10c,
wheat 1c, corn 2. oats 2, copper 2-3c, petro-
leum 1114c and tea 11Sc. AT the West some
grades of cottons are higher also as the cot
ton goods movement is exceptionally firm
and active with consumption equal to pro-
duetion. Mess pork is up twenty-five cents,
western steam lard &c and dressed hogs a.
Our special report of exports Of wheat and
-four from the United States, both coasts and
from Montreal show total this week equal
to 1000, 600 bushels of wheat, $50, 900 bush
els less than last week, but twice the guam
tity shipped in the previous week. Total
exports July to date SO, 278, 900 bushels.
Advices from New Orleans point to sugar
crop of 100000 hogsheads. The Louisiana
rice crop will be one-third short of last
years.
Bradstreet's reports but 1913 failures in the
United States this week against 223 last
week and 204 in the same week of last year.
The total from January to date is 8, 504
against 8, 1852 in 1886.

From His Position as Head of the
KMights of Labor.
CHICAGO, Nov. 25.-"I believe the general
master workman has fully and finally made
up his mind to retire." said General Worthy
Foreman Richard Grifiths to-day, referring
to Mr.. Powderly's letter, reafirming his de-
termination to decline reelection to the
presidency of the Knights of Labor. Mr..
Grifiths ranks next to Mr.. Powderly in the
order and would become its chief officer in
case Mr.. Powderly should die or resign before
the expiration of his term. ''I look forward
to his retirement with grave apprehension, y
he continued ''He has devoted the best years
of his life to a self-sacrifcing and earnest
endeayor to better the condition of the labor
ing people. Looking back upon the oondi-
ton of the wage workers of the country a
few years ago, see that wonderful improve
me nts have been made in their education.
They have acquired and are acquiring bet
ter knowledge of industrial affairs, political
economy and general information. This is
largely the result of Mr.. Powderly's policy.
The anarchistic element has assaulted Pow
derby in every possible way, but the conser~
vative element is in such an overwhelming
majority that the discordant faction can have
no possible influence upon the order. OF
course this element will endeavor to get
someone in sympathy with them into the

nation will always prevail in the end and the
